Saturday morning, February 13th, dawned a little chilly but warm in spirits as group of individuals gathered forces for the “Hearts for Haiti Rummage Sale”. But the feeling of community and service warmed everyone’s hearts as they rallied to support Foyer de Sion.

The outpouring of community support was tremendous. A special thanks to Stone Lumber who donated their parking lot for the event. They even surprised by broadcasting the event via the illuminated billboard which drew a lot of attention to the rummage sale.

A New Beginning Adopting Agency was kind enough to store all of the donated items for the rummage sale until the day of the event. Many individuals donated items for the rummage sale. We raised over $1,500 for the orphanage which will be used to purchase food supplies for the children.

A group of fantastic ladies from the Nampa Idaho East Stake manned the event and shared the story of Foyer De Sion. Those that participated Tendra Andrews, Sarah Adams, Jessica Dribnak, Alyce Dribnak, Amy Baumgartner, Heidi Child, Wendy Warwick, Randi (Sara Adams’ Sister-in-law) and Judie Sedrick.

Thank you for such a great effort!
